Schemes of the Marquis Household

Shen Qingluo grew up unloved—her parents favored others, her brothers ignored her, her sister schemed against her. Even so, she managed the Marquis household, turning its decline into prosperity, winning bright futures for her brothers, securing a noble title for her mother, and arranging a fine marriage for her sister. But when her husband rose to power, her sister coveted him. The family plotted together, bribed bandits, and when she returned, she had lost her virtue and was cast aside. She carried her divorce papers back to her natal home, only to find its gates shut tight. Her mother’s words cut like ice: “A woman who has lost her purity will only defile the Marquis estate.” In the bitter depths of winter, she froze to death in the snow —until she lived again. This time, she would indulge no one. She would marry her brothers to fierce wives, find scoundrels for her sister, tear apart her parents’ false masks, and choose her own family anew. The only surprise was the man who once trembled and respectfully called “Uncle”—now determined to make her his wife, showering her with a bridal procession ten miles long, and spoiling her beyond heaven. Years later, clad in phoenix robes, she stood before the fallen gates of the Marquis household. Those who had cast her aside knelt one by one at her feet.
